3DS


REDMOND, Wash., March 14, 2013 – Pokémon fans will get a jolt of excitement when Nintendo releases the Pikachu Edition Nintendo 3DS XL hand-held system on March 24. This bold yellow Nintendo 3DS XL hardware features a familiar outline of the iconic Pokémon. The system also comes packaged with a 4GB SD memory card and will be available while supplies last at a suggested retail price of $199.99.

Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Gates to Infinity launches the same day as the Pikachu Edition Nintendo 3DS XL system, and draws players in with a deep and compelling story full of unexpected twists. While playing as one of five popular Pokémon, players travel through a near-infinite amount of randomly generated Mystery Dungeons, battle and recruit other Pokémon and collect hidden treasure. The game is available exclusively on the Nintendo 3DS and includes the ability to discover Magnagates – entrances to new dungeons – by scanning everyday circular objects with the Nintendo 3DS Camera. Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Gates to Infinity is available at a suggested retail price of $34.99. For more information about the game, visit http://www.pokemon.com/MysteryDungeon.

As was previously rumored, Nintendo is bringing the Pikachu 3DS XL stateside. Retailers have already started to obtain product ahead of the system’s official release. A street date has apparently been set for March 24.

We’ll probably be receiving the official word from Nintendo about the special 3DS XL tomorrow. The Pokemon Company sent out a tweet earlier today teasing the announcement.

A couple of new items are on sale at Amazon. First up, both versions of Adventure Time are going for $19.54 currently. You can also purchase a Wii Classic Controller Pro for $13 – specifically, the white model.

Remember, the Wii Classic Controller Pro is not the same as the Wii U Pro Controller. You can, however, use a Wii Classic Controller Pro with a Wii U in some instances.


Seijiro Tomita took Nintendo to court over a glasses-free 3D patent last month after filing a lawsuit back in 2011. Today, a New York federal jury ruled against the company, which will be forced to pay $30.2 million in damages.

Tomita was granted a patent in 2008 for technology that allows users to see 3D content without special glasses. While Nintendo did meet with Tomita in 2003, the hardware manufacturer argued that he was one of many providers it met with and, as The Verge notes, “avoided key aspects of his patent.” The jury sided with Tomita in the end, resulting in the guilty verdict for Nintendo.
